Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 564

The thought that Shanley was captivated by her beauty, and that she was on the verge of soaring to new heights, brought a triumphant smile to Yolanda's lips. So what if she couldn't be the freshman representative? True talent shines anywhere.

"Yolanda, move to the front so Mr. Schwartz can get a better look at you," her friends urged excitedly.

"Okay." Yolanda smoothed her hair and adjusted her makeup, then stepped to the very front row. She lifted her chin like a proud peacock and gazed shyly at Shanley.

After Juniper's figure disappeared from view, Shanley's gaze returned, the warmth in his eyes replaced by an intimidating chill.

"Mr. Schwartz, welcome," President Lionel Landon and the other university leaders greeted him in turn.

"Mm," Shanley replied with a slight nod, his demeanor polite but distant.

"Yolanda, maybe you're not standing in a good spot. Do you think Mr. Schwartz can't see you?" a classmate asked curiously. "Why isn't he looking this way anymore?"

"Maybe," Yolanda mumbled, frowning. It was strange. He had just been smiling in her direction a moment ago.

"Hey, let her through..." one of Yolanda's sycophantic friends called out, trying to curry favor. "Yolanda, move forward a little more. Mr. Schwartz is coming this way!"

Watching the man approach—so devastatingly handsome it was almost divine—Yolanda's heart beat faster and faster. That's right. She had to try harder, capture his attention, and make him remember her for good.

With that resolve, and with the help of her classmates, Yolanda pushed her way to the front.

"Stop pushing!" The boys in front, getting shoved, grew angry and started pushing back at the girls behind them.

Caught in the middle, Yolanda couldn't keep her balance. Her body swayed precariously. Seeing Shanley was almost right in front of her, she decided to use the situation to her advantage and deliberately let herself fall forward. If all went according to plan, she would land right in his arms.
